Jameer NelsonNotes: Nelson withdrew from the Draft on June 19th, to return to St. Joseph’s for his senior season.The Skinny:
After a disappointing sophomore season, Nelson came alive as a junior in leading St. Joseph’s to the NCAA Tournament. He is quick and strong, using his strength to go in and get rebounds, and generally good on the ball defensively. He is a good distributor of the ball and a good floor leader who doesn’t shoot the ball exceedingly well and is more of a scorer than a shooter. He is already the all-time assists leader at St. Joseph’s.

Nelson is a borderline first round draft pick, and at this time is contemplating whether or not to stay in the draft or return to St. Joseph’s.

College Basketball Tonight

We hope you enjoyed COLLEGE BASKETBALL TONIGHT during the 2016 NCAA Tournament. COLLEGE BASKETBALL TONIGHT is a comprehensive look at the NCAA Tournament hosted by veteran college basketball broadcaster Ted Sarandis, along with co-hosts Mike Jarvis and Terry O'Connor, both former Division I coaches. It also included many great guests, including Hoopville's own Phil Kasiecki.

The show aired on AM 710 WOR in New York City on Sunday evenings starting with Selection Sunday and running through the NCAA Tournament.

"In reading this book, I can see that Mike hasn't lost his edge or his purpose. Readers should take a look at what he has to say."-Jim Calhoun, Three-time NCAA champion, UConn Men's basketball
